Good morning. We’re leading today with two stories that show Labor are running into the real stuff of government. First we have an exclusive interview with the defence minister, Richard Marles, in which he says the government does not have “limitless” resources and faces tough choices on military spending. We also have an Essential poll showing Anthony Albanese’s approval rating has dipped. Plus all the other domestic and international news, and fine reporting on a sobering night in Melbourne for Alex de Minaur at the hands of Novak Djokovic.
